Welcome!

Thank you to all of our virtual stakeholders that will be following our trip through this blog. We appreciate your donation. We hope that you can experience the feelings and volunteering that we will be participating in through our words and pictures.

This year's trip will be full of opportunities for our students to gain a better understanding of homelessness.

Some of the places we are looking to volunteer and are currently in touch with about scheduling are:
Food & Friends
S.O.M.E
Thrive D.C
DC Central Kitchen
Manna Food Center
Arlington Food Assistance Center
Street Sense

This year we are also planning to participate in the 48-hour Homeless Challenge that is sponsored through the National Coalition for the Homeless.

As leaders, we are getting excited as plans are falling into place and we are getting closer to the trip!

Nicole Campbell & Yvette Diaz

The following blogs that will be posted prior to our trip will include students' feelings and knowledge about homelessness now
